Do you often read at home, at a local library, at a cafe around the corner or even when you're on a bus trip?

What if you could share the books you have, or even have access to hundreds of books fellow book lovers have on their shelves...

Do you have a large collection of books that you had to store in boxes for months maybe years?

What if you could unpack those boxes and pack your books into a different kind of boxes.

Imagine a community space where you can share your passion for books.

Welcome to Tilde.

Tilde is built around the concept of boxes, only this time boxes are used not as storage medium but rather as sharing medium. The boxes elegantly bind together in many ways to form stools, bookshelves, benches, and tables...You are free to come by and drop your books in boxes whether you want to lend, sell or just giveaway. You can even come empty handed and check what others might have left to borrow, buy or giveaway. Tilde is not the traditional library, every time you walk into the space you discover something new, explore someone else's passion for books.

That's not all.

Tilde is not limited to being a library, it has multiple functions and is very dynamic, it can easily transform from a library into a workshop/training space or even an exhibition or storytelling area by moving and reconfiguring boxes.
